Why don't you just do 'git bisect skip' if the commit doesn't have a tag? > Is there any tooling for automatically recreating a branch from a > sequence of tags, where each generated commit is the calculated delta > between each two neighbouring tags? That would probably involve listing the wanted tags: % git log --topo-order --simplify-by-decoration --decorate --oneline And then generating the commits: % git cat-file -p v1.8.3 > commit # modify commit's parent % git hash-object -w < commit -- Felipe Contreras -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
